Duterte eyes meeting with Estrada, Arroyo on WPS

President Rodrigo Duterte plans to meet with former presidents Joseph Estrada and Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to discuss issues surrounding the West Philippine Sea.

Estrada's attendance depends on his health condition as he recently tested positive for COVID-19, while Arroyo has accepted the invitation.

Former President Fidel Ramos has not issued a statement yet, and Aquino is unable to attend due to undisclosed reasons.

Duterte prefers informal consultations over convening the National Security Council, which has not resolved previous issues.
